Hi,

I would like to know if the Honey Bee FP could go upside down, what do you think about it ?

Thx

[heligraphix]

A fixed pitch, rpm controlled heli will not go upside down unless you mount the blades the other way round (which you shouldn't do!) and start it upside down already.

@heligraphix done it with a CX2...scary but incredibly fun

[heligraphix]

@GoEflight Very cool - congrats! ;)

WHat heli is that? It kinda looks like an Eolo

[heligraphix]

It's an Acrobat 10 manufactured by Ploechinger (German manufacturer). It was powered by 10 NiCd cells - back in 2002 this was state-of-the-art (and worked quite ok as one can see). ;-)

@dave64ca The rotor is what supports the entire helicopter for all of the inverted and 3d flight, and there are plenty of side loads on it as well. Picking up the heli by the rotor isn't going to hurt anything unless you shake it around or something equally ridiculous.

i think you have the camera man with a second control

Why is the transmitter the size of a suitcase?

[adropbear09]

Look at the transmitter it's huge
